Now that you find yourself losing your mind
Are you here again
Finding that what you once thought was real
Is gone and changing

Now that you made yourself love me
Do you think I can change it in a day
How can I place you above me
Am I lying to you when I say
That I believe in you
O-oh, O-oh, O-oh I believe in you

Coming to you at night I see my questions
I feel wiped out
Wishing that maybe in a year or two
We can laugh and let it all out

Now that you made yourself love me
Do you think I can change it in a day
How can I place you above me
Am I lying to you when I say
That I believe in you
O-oh, O-oh, O-oh I believe in you
O-oh, O-oh, O-oh I believe in you
